Schizophrenic Astral Return by saggiosoft

[raw]
made by saggiosoft for LD26 (COMPO)
Do you know Astral Travel? Out-Of-Body-Experience (OBE)? No? Nevermind. This little game simulates the return journey of a bunch of astral bodies of a schizophrenic dude to his phisical body.
It's a little (minimal) action/puzzle game composed by 10 levels, with an amazing end-screen.
Made with Construct 2 (HTML5 format).
Enjoy!

Ha, this is a fun idea! Especially when all the bodies are radially arragned and move in an iris-shape :P

I like the controls, great idea :) Wish I would stop losing my purple guys off the edge of the screen :S

Good challenge, but it's hard to tell if the guys are moving forwards of backwards

Cool concept. However the sound was a little harsh...

Great overall! A couple of typos but a fun and challenging game that manages to stay true to the theme.

Really cool idea. Took me a while to figure out what "astral-call" (TM) actually does :)

This is a nice idea. quite surprising and difficult to control the first time, but i have a lot of fun. ^^

Level 1: Oh, I just hold up until they eventually get to the target
Level 2: Oh, I just arrange them into a neat row by smashin them into a screen border and then send them up all at once
Level 6: How do I do this?!?!

A really cool game!

Cool game! Sound was too loud, though (reduce audio by 10db in Construct, it helps a lot).

I went to level 6.
Quite cool but forward/backward was really weird sometimes (or is it just me?).
A little "Lose" would have been welcome when your spirits are lesser than the number of spirits you need ! lol
Didn't see I couldn't "win" after some time in the second map because of the trap :p

oh god this is really annoying. if you wanted to drive people crazy, well, you succeded.
anyway, a little hint: use shorter description. nobody wants to to read that much :P

Cool idea! :) Maybe you could differentiate the front from the back of the guy! :D

I dig this. The visuals don't seem to coherent despite clearly being inspired by the theme, which kinda distracts me at times.

Cool idea - was difficult to tell which way the astral bodies were facing sometimes, which was a little challenging. Maybe some astral faces are in order if you continue to develop it post competition. :)
